As expected by the players, after this game, Zhang Sheng did not give the team a holiday as usual, but asked them to continue training. Although Zhang Sheng did not explain why, the players knew the reason. "Δ
In fact, after the last round of the Chinese League, although the Longteng team only got one draw at home, its position in the standings rose from sixth to fourth. In addition to Guangzhou Evergrande, as the Chinese hegemon, it showed its stability.
Sex--5:o In addition to the huge victory over the second-ranked Shanghai SIPG, a direct rival for the championship, R&F tied and Luneng lost again. Evergrande has slowly widened the distance from the teams behind it.
At the same time, the Longteng team has also lived up to its nickname of "robbing the poor to give to the rich". When they faced several strong teams, they always won or tied with their opponents. When they faced weak teams, they either lost or drew.
Of course, there are other reasons why Zhang Sheng doesn't give the players a holiday. That is because the team is going to Nanjing to challenge Jiangsu Sainty in a double match a week and has no time to take a holiday.
Today's Jiangsu Sainty is not the tycoon club it was after being sponsored by Suning. As a state-owned enterprise, Sainty is still only a local state-owned enterprise, and it has many shortcomings in terms of strength and management.
After Jiangsu Sainty historically won the league runner-up in the 2o12 season, it was very difficult in the 2o13 season. At the end of the season, they could only successfully avoid relegation. The former meritorious coach Dragan was also forced to sack.
Historically, Jiangsu Sainty should have hired Gao Hongbo as the head coach this season. Unfortunately, because of Zhang Sheng's appearance, Gao Hongbo made the decision to study abroad in Germany for two years. He was still studying and could no longer return to China to be the head coach.
Sainty also invited Stano, who had just resigned from Beijing Guoan, as the team coach. At the same time, the team also made a large number of signings. First, they introduced Shandong Luneng's meritorious foreign aid, and the team's foreign aid captain An
Tal, then introduced the legendary Korean K-League foreign aid Dejan Damianovic, known as "Ibrahimovic of Asia", and finally introduced Brazilian forward Elias.
It is a pity that these three players can play a certain role in the team except Antar. Elias does have problems with his ability, and Dejan is not suitable for the tactics of head coach Stano, so the team plays
It's not good.
Especially on the offensive end, in the 9 Chinese League games that have ended, they have only scored 8 goals, which means that they cannot score one goal per game on average. The only thing that is more gratifying is that their defense is pretty good, 9
They only conceded 6 goals in the first round of the league, one less than the first-ranked Guangzhou Evergrande, and they are also the Chinese team that has conceded the fewest goals at this stage.
After the Longteng team arrived in Nanjing, they have been adapting to the venue. In fact, what interferes with Jiangsu Sainty's performance is the choice of home court this season. Last season, Nanjing, the former home city of Jiangsu Sainty, in order to welcome the Youth Olympic Games, played against Nanjing.
Many sports venues have been renovated. Sainty's former home stadium, Wutaishan Stadium and Nanjing Olympic Sports Center are both undergoing renovations and cannot be played. Sainty was forced to play games in Zhenjiang City, Jiangsu Province in the 2o13 season.
Both stadiums have been renovated this season, but in order to avoid the Youth Olympic Games, if Jiangsu Sainty chooses them as their home court, they may have to wait until the Youth Olympic Games starts in the middle of the season and move to Zhenjiang to play their home games. Therefore, Jiangsu Sainty
Sainty's club executives have been weighing the home match for this season. It was not until the start of the season that they decided on a home venue in Nanjing Olympic Sports Center before May. They will discuss the home venue after entering May. This is a good match for the club before the season.
preparation has a very big impact.
After the official game, the Longteng team, which had not played well in the previous game, showed its characteristics of being stronger when facing a strong opponent. The players who had been beaten by Zhang Sheng played very actively.
The Dragons also made some adjustments to their players in this game. McGowan, who was sent off with a red card in the last game, was replaced by Lu Zhihui. His performance at the back line was very good. Ding Huaiyi also played the role.
He replaced Yu Bo.
After the start of the first half, Sainty could still rely on the players who had just started to have enough energy to defend the Longteng team's offense through active running. However, as the game progressed, the players on the court of the Longteng team slowly appeared. Jiangsu Sainty
shortcomings.
As the head coach of Beijing Guoan last season, and as the direct person in charge of the first team, he achieved the first two of the three extremely challenging goals of "top three in the league, qualifying for the AFC Champions League, and the FA Cup final". Stano
It can be said that he did a good job, but in the end he was dismissed from his position by Beijing Guoan. Now he comes to Jiangsu Sainty to prove himself again.
The characteristics of Stano's football tactical system are: defense first, counterattack first, fast break first, and not seeking to control the ball. As the opponents of the Longteng Football Association Cup quarter-finals last season, Zhang Sheng and Stano
Nuo has played against each other before, and Zhang Sheng achieved a suppressive victory in terms of tactics and player strength.
So when facing Stano again this time, both Zhang Sheng and the players on the team seemed very confident. When facing the pressing of Sainty players, the players of the Longteng team coordinated their passing and receiving.
To the extreme, although Sainty's players fought very actively, they did not have much effect.
In the 28th minute of the first half, the Longteng team relied on Ding Huaiyi's breakthrough from the left to send a pass to Pato. Pato did not waste the pass and headed the ball into the goal. The Longteng team took the lead 0:1.
Liu Jiayuan, who was in charge of the commentary, also praised the goal: "Although it was Ding Huaiyi who passed the ball in the end and Pato who scored the goal, before the pass and the goal, the Longteng team passed through more than ten consecutive passes in the frontcourt.
With the pass of the foot, the Longteng team attracted Sainty's defensive focus from the right to the left, and then from the left to the right, and then gave Ding Huaiyi a chance to break through one-on-one. Once a player like Ding Huaiyi is given one-on-one
opportunity, Ding Huaiyi's breakthrough and passing are too threatening. As for Pato, facing Ding Huaiyi's pass, he only needs to run to the position where he should run. Such an opportunity is for Pato.
It’s too simple.”
After scoring this goal, the Longteng team, which had been attacking for a long time, slightly slowed down the pace of the attack. Only after this did the Sainty team have some breathing space, and the players were able to attack, but they
There are not many offensive ideas in the frontcourt. Antar is a central midfielder, but his offense is far better than his defense, and Dejan is also a player who likes to withdraw from the penalty area to organize and get the ball.
Both players wanted to organize, but no one was able to organize. As for Elias, who was at the front, he was fierce, but it was of no use. Everyone could only see his many mistakes in catching the ball.
, failed to pass the ball and missed the shot, and every time he failed, he would slap his hands on the ground with a regretful face to vent his emotions, so many fans gave him the nickname "Pat Devil".
After easily withstanding the Sainty team's onslaught, the Longteng team counterattacked again. This time, the Longteng team's breakthrough point was placed on the right. After using the midfielder's many passes,
Sainty's defensive gap was once again exposed. Mahrez received the pass in the right corner of the penalty area and faced Sainty's left back Ren Hang alone. He used his skills to form a attack on Ren Hang.
After a technical knockdown, Ren Hang's center of gravity was completely shaken. Mahrez, who entered the penalty area, faced the defensive center back Edelson and did not shoot but passed to the center because Pato was being stared at hard.
, the ball was caught by Wenkai, but Wenkai's shooting ability was indeed not as superb as Pato's. He kicked a basically empty goal opportunity on the door frame, and the Sainty team also escaped.
Sainty's goalkeeper Deng Xiaofei had already given up on the save. After seeing the ball bounce off the goal frame and fly out of the field in fear, he complained to his teammates angrily: "Marking, how can you let others do it so easily?"
Get into the box and pass the ball."
But both the full-back and the center-back were helpless against the ball. Everyone knew that this kind of defense made it difficult for Deng Xiaofei to defend. Unfortunately, it wasn't because everyone didn't work hard. The Longteng team's offensive method was really difficult to defend against.
Liu Jiayuan also said: "It was difficult for Sainty to adapt to the Longteng team's offensive method. There were many missed shots in defense, and it did not do a good job of assisting in defense against the Longteng team's explosive points on the left and right sides.
If the defensive problems are not solved, Sainty will be very difficult in the next few dozen minutes. Stano's defensive tactics have always been a mixture of zone defense and man-to-man defense, but now it seems that the effect is not good.
.”
Stano's defensive method mentioned by Liu Jiayuan is a relatively popular defensive method now.
The most advanced thing in international football now should be the pressing counter-attack, but the pressing counter-attack not only requires the collective movement of the team, but also requires the formation and positioning before the counter-attack, so to a certain extent, pressure is
Counterattack is often regarded as a mental behavior. If you don't react immediately when your teammates lose the ball, you will miss the opportunity to counterattack.
Whether through instinct or training, after losing the ball, players must immediately engage in counterattack. Usually, successful counterattack is a comprehensive product of training, mentality and personality.
However, tactical layout also plays a certain role. No matter how quickly a team engages in a counter-attack after losing the ball or how strong the counter-attack is, only when each player is in the right position in the formation can the counterattack be successful.
Therefore, the coach can arrange this tactic before the game, where the players should stand more compactly on the court, and where they can spread out a little. Through these arrangements, they can make arrangements based on the opponent's strengths and one's own weaknesses.
Defense.
Unfortunately, such tactics require a lot of players' physical fitness, technical ability, running without the ball, football intelligence, and positional awareness. If a team does not have a large group of high-level players, it will be difficult to achieve the effect of pressing defense.
However, in terms of basic defensive methods, pressing defense is just an upgrade from two traditional defensive methods, and these two traditional defensive methods are exactly - man-to-man defense and zone defense.
Among them, man-to-man defense is the originator of all defenses. With the continuous development and progress of football tactics, it gradually evolved into two methods: overall man-to-man defense and individual man-to-man defense. It also evolved from the initial absolute man-to-man defense to
Flexible man-to-man defense, space-oriented man-to-man defense, man-to-man defense tailored to the situation, man-to-man defense for key players, man-to-man defense in specific areas or specific positions, and other branches.
Man-to-man defensive tactics have also undergone qualitative changes from the "11 donkeys walking on the court" from the 1920s to the 1950s. Space compression man-to-man defense or a kind of aggressiveness.
The extremely strong man-to-man defensive strategy that changes according to the situation on the field has become one of the foundations of the most advanced pressing defense.
As another defensive tactic with a long history, zone defense is actually not much more advanced than man-to-man defense. The initial zone defense was almost completely different from today's. The initial zone defense obviously lacked organization and could even be said to be chaotic.
In defense, the defensive players run around following the opponent's players, and only when they are lucky can they seize the opportunity to control the ball.
After the Italians transformed zone defense, the effect of zone defense has been greatly enhanced. And with the improvement of players' physical fitness, football intelligence and professionalism, the players' personal defense range has become larger, and mutual cooperation has become more tacit. Zone defense
Gradually replacing man-to-man defense as the mainstream tactic. However, in this way, the area connected between players is easier to cover, and the defensive responsibilities are sometimes unclear. This is also the reason why regional defense is important in both vertical and horizontal directions (especially vertical).
The biggest shortcoming.
In the late 1980s, another new element was introduced into zonal defense, the so-called space compression. In principle, this made the game more compact and allowed the attack to be more efficient through the use of football rules such as time, space and offside.
The area where the player throws the ball is continuously compressed.
This is also one of the ways in which pressing defense is displayed in zone defense, and has evolved into position-oriented zone defense (defending tactical positions), player-oriented zone defense (defending player positions), and space-oriented zone defense (defending the whole body).
Formation), various advanced versions of possibility-oriented zone defense (defending passing lanes).
After entering the 21st century, in order to make up for the shortcomings of man-marking and zone defense, the mixed application of the two defenses has become mainstream. Such tactics have certain requirements for the players' foot skills, football intelligence, and running without the ball. Domestic players
Players' biggest weakness is running without the ball, so there are very few Chinese teams that can play a qualified mixed defense.
Foreign coaches like Stano always want to bring more advanced tactics to China. Unfortunately, domestic players are not enough to support their tactics, and these teams have become samples of their "coaching failure". (To be continued.
